Darwin Nunez might just be packing his bags — not for preseason, but for the Saudi sun.

The Liverpool striker is reportedly open to a move to Saudi giants Al-Hilal (via Foot Mercato).

If it happens soon, the move could line him up for a spicy reunion against his old pal Trent Alexander-Arnold at the Club World Cup.

With Real Madrid and Al-Hilal drawn in the same half of the bracket, the pair could lock horns on June 18.

Yes, from teammates at Anfield to opponents on the world stage — football really does love a plot twist.

Nunez arrived at Liverpool with high hopes and a hefty £85 million ($115m) price tag in 2022.

Between missed chances and mixed form, the Uruguayan has been more of a “what if” than a “wow.”

And with new boss Arne Slot not exactly giving him the keys to the attack — just eight Premier League starts last season — Nunez may be ready for a fresh start.

Enter Al-Hilal.

The Saudi club, fresh from missing out on Victor Osimhen, have reportedly made first contact with Nunez’s camp, though there’s no official bid yet.

If Nunez does join Al-Hilal, he might face Alexander-Arnold — now officially a Real Madrid player — in what would be a mouthwatering matchup at the Club World Cup.

Imagine the headlines: “Darwin Unleashed Against Trent” or perhaps “From Reds to Rivals.”

Football never sleeps.
